How You Can Do So Many Bad Things to Yourself and Still Function

by Jimmy Scott, Ph. D.
Health Freedom News, Feb 1993
Using a lesson from sailors of the past, who developed not only scurvy, but also other strange symptoms when their bodies were deprived of Vitamin C, Dr. Scott explains how our bodies can continue to function when lacking vital nutrients. When we function with a deficit of nutrients, our body robs its own reserves of those nutrients, causing symptoms to appear. Signs that tell us we are lacking in Zinc are presented as an example. Dr. Scott then explains how the body has a priority system for its use of nutrients. Certain ailments / deficiencies need to be attended to before others will respond. Health Kinesiology works with the body's own priority system to build health in a lasting way.

This article quickly reviews several alternative forms of health care available today, including: nutrition, allergy treatment, naturopathy, applied kinesiology, and health kinesiology.

Dr. Scott discusses such issues as training and qualifications of practitioners, finding referrals, and which questions to ask your prospective practitioner. He reminds us that we must take responsibility for our own health, even when dealing with conventional healers.

You May Have Hidden Allergies

by Jimmy Scott, Ph. D.
Health Freedom News, December 1984
Dr. Scott explains that many health problems that do not respond to treatment may actually find their cause in hidden allergies. Allergic reactions are now understood to include symptoms like: digestive difficulties, muscular aches and pains, arthritis, inadequate blood sugar control, addictions, and psychological problems.
